The Cavaliers will likely see a decline in plays in this contest from facing the 7th-slowest pace offense in the NBA this year (the Warriors).Offensive rebounds retain possession and generate additional chances for scoring and assists, but the Cavaliers rank 2ndworst in in the NBA on the road with a mere 7.8 offensive boards per game this year.Since the start of last season, opposing clubs have snagged 11.1 offensive boards per game (10th-highest in the NBA) vs. the Golden State Warriors (maintaining possessions that can spark additional opportunities for offense).Jarrett Allen will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing on the road tends to lower stat production across the board.
